Canal Side Apartment is brilliant! My friend and I stayed during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and it was wonderful. Very reasonable rates and Jan is a wonderful host. She was there to meet us and also to say farewell at the end of our trip.

I am fussy about where I stay, but this apartment in a traditional Scottish tenement is perfect. It is spotless and has everything you need including tea, milk and biscuits! During the festival it is hectic and the flat was a silent haven away from all of the chaos!

My friend and I requested the bed to be split in two and it was. Very clean bed linen and a very comfortable and soft bed :) Jan cleans the apartment herself and you can tell. She does not cut corners and it is home from home.

I have no hesitation in recommending this lovely place!

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It's nice to know that my efforts to create a home from home are appreciated. You were great guests to host and I'm really glad you enjoyed your stay in Edinburgh. I agree that it's good to get away from the frenetic atmosphere of the High Street when you've done your sight-seeing for the day!

Situated in an up and coming area,this apartment is close to the city centre without being in the middle of that lovely but frenetic/noisy area. The apartment is well appointed,clean and has plenty of space. Public transport into town is less than minute away,so no need to take the car!The the apartment is located in a typical,older style of Edinburgh building which has it's own character-the apartment however is thoroughly modern.We spent a lovely week here and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

Thank you for taking the time to review Canal Side Apartment. Thankfully the building work opposite has now been completed; we now have a local supermarket on the corner and the street is much more open with plenty of parking available. We've also upgraded the bathroom since your stay with a new, walk-in shower. I hope to see you back in Edinburgh soon.
